Rich in the Heart

William Henry Gates III, or better known as Bill Gates, is an American entrepreneur and the co-founder of Microsoft, the world's largest software company. Forbes magazine's list of The World's Billionnaires has ranked him as the richest person on earth for the last thirteen consecutive years, with a current networth of approximately $53 billion. Since amassing his fortune, Gates has donated a large amount of money to various charitable organizations and scientific research programs through the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation. Here, my frens, is an example of a man worthy of being rich.
Yes, when you are rich, you get to spend as much as you like. It's true, it's your money, you worked hard for it mar. But then, try to spend wisely lar. *Points finger at how rich people like Roman Abramovich spends their money on a football club (paying an estimated £500 million)*. (Please note that I am not saying that Roman is not a kind person. He might be having is own charity organization going on. I am just pointing out at how he spent his money). Hello Rich People, there are many kids who don't have enuf food to eat also u know? Why can't you just spend a little less and sponsor a child? Who knows, he might be a leader in the future if he/she gets to live a proper life.
Unlike many rich people that spend their money unwisely, Bill Gates is one of the few rich guys that I really respected. He's one in a million in terms of giving back to the community. I alwiz believe that one should do so. Imagine how many child can £500 million sponsor. Then there would be a world without poverty. Sadly, humans are born wif greed. Therefore this situation will never exist.
